What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A support apparatus for supporting and displaying hanging articles, the apparatus comprising:
 a support arm extending from a first end to a second end; 
 a plurality of knobs secured to the support arm at the second end and configured to receive the hanging articles; 
 an attachment member movably coupled to the support arm between the first end and a first one of the plurality of knobs at the second end; 
 a bumper secured to the support arm at the first end; 
 wherein the attachment member is configured to tighten onto a closet bar; 
 wherein the bumper is for contacting a location of a wall, the wall proximate the closet bar and the location at a vertical height lower than a vertical height of the closet bar; and 
 wherein the support arm is curved to facilitate the bumper for contacting the location of a wall. 
 
     
     
       2. The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the attachment member comprises:
 a collar; and 
 a tightening member; 
 wherein the collar is configured to secure the attachment member to the support arm; and 
 wherein the tightening member is configured to secure the attachment member to a closet bar. 
 
     
     
       3. The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the attachment member has a pad configured to secure around a closet bar. 
     
     
       4. The support apparatus of  claim 1  wherein the attachment member comprises an arcuate portion for abutting to the closet bar while leaving a portion of the closet bar not in contact with the attachment member. 
     
     
       5. The support apparatus of  claim 1  wherein the plurality of knobs is between the attachment member and the second end of the support member. 
     
     
       6. The support apparatus of  claim 1  wherein the attachment member is movably coupled to the support arm for allowing a change in an amount of an extension of the support arm relative to a location of the closet bar.
